We are going to require an initdb for beta2 and I think we need to get
_everything_ required in there before going to beta2.  See the open
items list.  I think we will need until the middle of next week for
beta2.  In fact, I have the inheritance patch that will require an
initdb and that isn't even applied yet;  Friday is too early.
